You can easily copy and paste the Vertical Space, which should be nearly as simply as marking several paragraphs (and simpler if you want to apply the spacing to several non-consecutive paragraphs). So I was hoping for a better solution, preferrably the solution that used to exist in the paragraph layout dialog. One possibility would be to define a new Layout style that includes a leading space. Then you could mark and change a number of paragraphs the old way (nearly, as you would use the Layouts drop-down box instead of the EditParagraph dialogue). Günter

Paragraph layout dialog missing spacing section in lyx 1.5
Hello Is there a reason that the Above and Below-sections are missing from the Paragraph Layout dialog in lyx 1.5? I really want to be able to individually space my paragraphs, but I can not seem to find a good way to do this. I used to be so convenient in 1.4. Is the dialog moved somewhere else? Håvard.
